sometimes , writing things down can help you work out why you’re feeling angry and how you might be able to deal with it

this one seems basic , but works really well for anger management . thinking about something other than what’s upsetting you for 100 seconds gives you a chance to gather yourself and your thoughts before you do anything else

when you’re angry , it’s almost impossible to deal with the situation in a helpful way . if you feel yourself losing your cool , just walk away from the situation for a while . you’ll deal with it better when everyone , including yourself , is feeling calmer

exercise is an awesome way to let off steam . you could take a walk around the block , go for a run , or do something really high-energy like boxing

talking to someone you trust about how you’re feeling can take weight off your shoulders as well as your mind . that could be a trusted adult , friend or family member

if you know what helps you to relax , you’ll find it useful whenever you’re feeling angry . take some time out to do something you enjoy , for instance :

going for a walk in the park

reading a book

trying some meditation

listening to music
